Did this issue start happening after an update/upgrade? Was there a kernel version where you were not having this particular problem? This will help determine if the problem you are seeing is the result of the introduction of a regression, and when this regression was introduced.

[Michael Vezie (m-launchpad-20-mlv)]

New install of Ubuntu server 32bit (downloaded on Sunday 6/17/12).
"Always" (since Sunday) seen it.

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v3.5kernel[0] (Not a kernel in the daily directory) and install both the linux-image and linux-image-extra .deb packages.

Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag(Only that one tag, please leave the other tags). This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text.

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'.
Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed".

Thanks in advance.

[somejan (somejan)]

I can confirm that I also have this problem. Ubuntu 12.04 32 bits, installed a week ago on not very modern hardware (pentium 4 1500 MHz). I will see if I can test upstream, but I can't promise anything as it's not my own computer.

[somejan (somejan)]

I've installed mainline kernel 3.5.0-030500-generic #201207211835, and I'm still getting NAK bailouts in dmesg/tty1.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

[Expired for linux (Ubuntu) because there has been no activity for 60 days.]

[auspex (auspex)]

Apparently the requested testing was performed, but since the bug was not returned to Confirmed status the janitor expired it.

[Joseph Salisbury (jsalisbury)]

The v3.7-rc7 kernel is now available. It would be good to know if this bug is already fixed in that version. Can you test v3.7-rc7 and post back if it has the bug or not?

http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.7-rc7-raring/

[Mike (bild85)]

I saw this but with i2c-3 on a fresh install of version of Oracle VM Server with the following kernel:
# uname -a
Linux hostname-01 2.6.39-300.22.2.el5uek #1 SMP Fri Jan 4 12:40:29 PST 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Screenshot attached

Also affects Ubuntu 13.04 beta 1

[penalvch (penalvch)]

Michael Vezie, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc5

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding.

[crtlbreak (hauptfleisch)]

Same issue - still persists with
root@files:~# uname -a
Linux files 3.2.0-29-generic-pae #46-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 27 17:25:43 UTC 2012 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux

[penalvch (penalvch)]

crtlbreak, thank you for your comment. So your issue may be dealt with as soon as possible, and so your hardware may be tracked by having necessary debugging information automatically attached, could you please file a new report with Ubuntu by executing the following in a terminal while booted into the default Ubuntu repository kernel via:
ubuntu-bug linux

For more on why this is most helpful, please read the official Ubuntu documentation from the respective Ubuntu developer groups, and triage teams:
Ubuntu Bug Control and Ubuntu Bug Squad: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/BestPractices
Ubuntu Kernel Team: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/KernelTeamBugPolicies
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Policies/DuplicateBugs
Ubuntu Community: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs

When opening up the new report, please feel free to subscribe me to it.

Thank you for your understanding.
